Description
Jets is a brand new app to help you find the best seat for your flight. It contains detailed seat maps showing positive and negative features on every seat on board.
Whether you are a regular flyer or just take the occasional trip, it makes a massive difference if you can relax in comfort with additional legroom, more storage space and awesome window view.
Using Jets you'll always know which seat to choose, so you can avoid discomfort, backache, nasty smells, cold drafts and noise near galleys, restrooms and stairs.

“Jets is one of those gorgeous apps that combine the fluidness of great design with useful information. Some apps are nice to use because they're useful, some apps are nice to use because they're pretty but Jets is actually fun to use because it's both!”
— GIZMODO, App of the Week
“For frequent flyers, getting just the right seat on a plane is essential. Whether it's aisle or window, exit row, or just making sure you have as much legroom as possible, knowledge is power.”
— MACRUMORS
“The first thing you notice about Jets is its slick, glossy interface. Using a few aviation-themed elements, but doing so sparingly and only in places where it makes sense, the overall package is elegantly presented and a joy to use.”
— TheNextWeb.com
“Simple and effective. Jets has a shiny clean user interface and seating maps are colorful and color coded for ease.”
— AppSafari.com, 4/5
“Jets’s an example of an app which combines fantastic custom-designed visuals and great information. Here find the perfect seat. Some have criticized Jets for it doesn’t offer info for specific airlines, but you should just visit their page for details on supported carriers. Apart of the lack of support for minor airlines, Jets looks fantastic and has good information.”

Customer Reviews
This app is not for frequent travelers
While people new to traveling might find this app amusing, frequent travelers will find it clumsy and missing a lot of data. For example:
- It can't connect to your Tripit itinerary
- it doesn't allow you to select a which leg of a multi leg flight number you're traveling on
- It doesn't know which version of a plane you're flying on (United has many configurations of the same plane)
- The graphical interface is huge, forcing you to scroll forever to find exit rows
Frankly, this is a waste of $3. A seasoned traveler will use SeatGuru.com, and no, I don't work for SeatGuru or any of it's affiliates. I just fly over 200K miles a year.
very usefull
the application is simple and helpfull. The interface is well designed and intuitive
Very lacking in data. No planes other than Airbus or Boeing
I bought "Jets" with high hopes and after reading all of the positive reviews (which, after looking back through them, many appear to not be genuine reviews). Here are the shortcoming I've run into:
- No manufacturers other than Boeing or Airbus, which means no regional jets (Bombardier CRJs, Embraer ERJs), and no turboprops (Saab 340, Dash 8, etc). CRJs and ERJs have become much more popular in the past few years, and it's a massive omission to not have this information. For example, Embraers make up almost 30% of JetBlue's fleet alone.
- No information about in-seat power outlets
- No information about wifi being equipped on that model jet with that carrier
- No specific information on where the lavatory or galley is
- No information on in-flight entertainment equipment
All of this information is available on several web-based seat rating sites but lacking in the app.
Be cautious trusting the other reviews posted for this app. It seems they were just bulk spammed in place.
